SublimeLinter-contrib-sass-lint
This linter plugin for SublimeLinter provides an interface to sass-lint (Node.js). It will be used with files that have Sass and SCSS syntax.
Installation
SublimeLinter 3 must be installed in order to use this plugin. If SublimeLinter 3 is not installed, please follow the instructions here.
Linter installation
Before using this plugin, you must ensure that sass-lint
is installed on your system. To install sass-lint
, do the following:
-
Install
sass-lint
globally by typing the following in a terminal:npm install -g sass-lint
Note: This plugin requires sass-lint
1.2.0 or later. Check your version with sass-lint --version
.
Linter configuration
In order for sass-lint
to be executed by SublimeLinter, you must ensure that its path is available to SublimeLinter. Before going any further, please read and follow the steps in “Finding a linter executable” through “Validating your PATH” in the documentation.
Once you have installed and configured sass-lint
, you can proceed to install the SublimeLinter-contrib-sass-lint
plugin if it is not yet installed.
Plugin installation
Please use Package Control to install the linter plugin. This will ensure that the plugin will be updated when new versions are available. If you want to install from source so you can modify the source code, you probably know what you are doing so we won’t cover that here.
To install via Package Control, do the following:
-
Within Sublime Text, bring up the Command Palette and type
install
. Among the commands you should seePackage Control: Install Package
. If that command is not highlighted, use the keyboard or mouse to select it. There will be a pause of a few seconds while Package Control fetches the list of available plugins. -
When the plugin list appears, type
sass-lint
. Among the entries you should seeSublimeLinter-contrib-sass-lint
. If that entry is not highlighted, use the keyboard or mouse to select it.
Settings
For general information on how SublimeLinter works with settings, please see Settings. For information on generic linter settings, please see Linter Settings.
You can configure sass-lint
options with a .sass-lint.yml
. If a .sass-lint.yml
file is not found in the file hierarchy starting with the linted file, your home directory will also be searched. For more information, see the sass-lint page. Default configuration file can be found here.
Update SublimeLinter settings to check for a configurtaion file in your current project:
// SublimeLinter Settings - User
{
"linters": {
"sass": {
"working_dir": "${file_path}"
}
}
}
Common issues
Remember to choose SCSS syntax (lower right corner of Sublime), not SASS. Else you might get errors like
Please check validity of the block starting from #1.
Cannot find that syntax? Install the package SCSS
.
